00:04:00.901 --> 00:04:04.711
As most of you know by now, I'm on the board of the Carnegie Museum of Kings County.
00:04:04.711 --> 00:04:08.311
It's truly been an honor to present our recent exhibitions.
00:04:08.311 --> 00:04:18.273
The second installment of Kings County's Asian Experiences opened on Friday and will run through December 15th at the historic Carnegie Library building in downtown Hanford.
00:04:18.273 --> 00:04:26.014
This portion of the exhibition focuses on the experiences and contributions of the area's Asian communities following World War II.
00:04:26.014 --> 00:04:34.410
Specific displays highlight the religious practices, cultural traditions, festivals and businesses that have been at the heart of these groups.
00:04:34.410 --> 00:04:38.261
It's my honor now to sit down with the curators of the exhibit.
00:04:38.261 --> 00:04:43.242
Joining me are Steve Bannister, arianne Wing, gail Holliman.
00:04:43.242 --> 00:04:49.065
Bannister, arianne Wing, gail Holliman, kelly McCoy, jennifer Lano and Nancy Yang Gail.
00:04:49.065 --> 00:04:51.547
I know you're really excited about Part 2.
00:04:51.547 --> 00:04:53.889
Part 1 was such a huge success.
00:04:53.889 --> 00:04:57.290
What can visitors look forward to in this portion of the exhibit?
00:04:58.471 --> 00:05:13.358
Of all the items, probably again the most particular Cigna-g significant portion for me would have been the VFW and since they established the first Nisei post in Hanford with just the veterans, that's a big gem for me.
00:05:13.358 --> 00:05:31.028
And also the Japanese festivals to help share all the festivals that the Japanese and the Buddhist church does as part of their tradition, and I'm very honored that we were able to get the Fresno Bonsai Society to participate in this particular exhibit.
00:05:31.028 --> 00:05:45.994
Unfortunately we could not get a tree, a bonsai tree, due to the delicate nature of the trees and we didn't want to harm the asset, so they were able to donate or gift a few items for us to display in the display this year.
00:05:47.262 --> 00:05:49.168
So what were they able to donate then?
00:05:50.019 --> 00:05:55.372
They loaned us a screen with a description very peaceful, like a meditative environment.
00:05:55.372 --> 00:06:02.574
They arranged for the rocks in a very serene environment and there's a description there.
00:06:02.574 --> 00:06:07.747
And these were all because of the efforts of William Clark, who is a native Hanford who has since passed.
00:06:07.747 --> 00:06:10.649
He's the one that started the Clark Center south of town.
00:06:10.649 --> 00:06:23.146
And also they were able to donate or actually loaned us a concrete bowl that was made in one of the concentration camps which is in the evacuation display and that's a very rare item.
00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:32.870
So, steve, I know a lot of people were saddened by the fire at the Taos Temple back a few years ago and I know you have a very moving display in the museum media room.
00:06:34.521 --> 00:06:40.333
Well, the temple room in Part 2 is somewhat serene and, to put it frankly, burnt.
00:06:40.333 --> 00:06:45.839
We worked with a set designer to create the temple after the fire burnt.
00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:48.084
We worked with a set designer to create the temple after the fire.
00:06:48.084 --> 00:06:57.980
We have some before and after photos of a couple of the items that were unburned and then they're burn staged and then after conservation, and it's remarkable how well they looked after the conservation efforts take place.
00:06:57.980 --> 00:07:16.610
There's a couple of videos that I'm really proud of, funded by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and one of them is an award that we got, a Trustees Emeritus Award for Historic Site Stewardship, and then the other is a video called Rising, featuring Ariane.
00:07:18.740 --> 00:07:24.213
Ariane, can you share with us some of the other items in the exhibition and maybe a few things that really inspired you?
00:07:25.646 --> 00:07:28.339
with us some of the other items in the exhibition and maybe a few things that really inspired you.
00:07:28.339 --> 00:07:34.586
Well, that's a big question because the whole exhibit, I'm really proud of pulling this one off.
00:07:34.586 --> 00:07:37.994
What we did is we took a lot of part one the past and brought it into the present.
00:07:37.994 --> 00:08:03.665
One of the things that really brought a smile to my face was recreating a dining room from the Imperial Dynasty restaurant and I was also very proud that I could remember how to set the table, because that was very, very important to my Uncle Richard, that it was set just properly and that was fun and it's been fun watching that one develop.
00:08:03.665 --> 00:08:08.091
It was to start out with well, just have a table, and then it just sort of grew and grew and grew.
00:08:08.091 --> 00:08:21.112
Like I said, I walk by that and it brings back so many memories for me and it makes me think of all the people that used to come in there and they became our friends and family and that was probably my favorite display to do.
00:08:22.581 --> 00:08:31.600
The China Alley Preservation Society has so many projects on the board, how can the community continue to support the restoration efforts in China Alley you?
00:08:31.620 --> 00:08:43.134
can go to our website, chinaalleycom, and there is a great big donate button on there and we are happy to receive any donation, no matter how little or what's great big.
00:08:43.134 --> 00:08:44.596
We are very appreciative.
00:08:44.596 --> 00:08:48.144
We have an event coming up on September 28th.
00:08:48.144 --> 00:08:58.633
The Carnegie Museum and the China Alley Preservation Society are putting together a tribute to the Moon Festival and that will be a nice, fun event to see again.
00:08:58.633 --> 00:09:04.004
It's been since the arson and COVID we haven't had this event, so I'm looking forward to it.
00:09:05.826 --> 00:09:09.393
Kelly, the Filipino addition to the exhibition is pretty special too.
00:09:09.393 --> 00:09:12.519
Can you tell us a little bit about your inspiration for this portion?
00:09:13.644 --> 00:09:27.418
Well unbeknownst to me, there are actually Filipinos 4,800 Filipinos in Kings County, which makes them far and away the largest Asian group in the county.
00:09:27.577 --> 00:09:30.760
I had no idea that that was the case away.
00:09:30.760 --> 00:09:31.981
The largest Asian group in the county.
00:09:31.981 --> 00:09:33.984
I had no idea that that was the case.
00:09:33.984 --> 00:10:03.000
What I did know, though, is that they haven't had as long of a presence in the county and that, even though there are several families and individuals that have made contributions, we don't really know much about the community itself, unlike, for example, the very iconic and storied local Chinese and Japanese communities, and so, for me personally, I thought you know what a fantastic opportunity to give residents of Kings County an opportunity to learn more about the Filipinos.
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:44.712
Because so little is known about this community, it's important to fold their story into historical context, so one of the displays that I'm particularly proud of actually is something that we owe tremendous thanks to the Filipino American National Historical Society in Stockton, for in that, one of the bays is taken up with four gorgeous six-foot-tall banners that talk about the four waves of Filipino immigration to the United States, and includes California and the contributions that the Filipino people have made here, which are pretty remarkable.
00:10:46.196 --> 00:10:47.077
How about you, kristen?
00:10:47.077 --> 00:10:55.455
What's been your inspiration for the exhibits that you've been able to put together highlighting the Filipino community, and what should people be looking for when they come to the Carnegie Museum?
00:10:57.166 --> 00:10:59.615
The reason I did this is for my Uncle, David.
00:10:59.615 --> 00:11:11.061
When I was raised in Delano, during the summers he made sure that we knew what our family heritage was and is and we stand strong and carry on the tradition.
00:11:11.061 --> 00:11:13.370
Being little, I didn't understand that.
00:11:13.370 --> 00:11:19.269
I think with a lot of people, especially with the Asian culture, we don't get it, we don't care.
00:11:19.269 --> 00:11:22.477
But as we get older, like myself, I figured out.
00:11:22.477 --> 00:11:25.110
Oh, I know exactly what he's talking about.
00:11:25.110 --> 00:11:34.427
So when I was brought in for this part two, I was doing I feel like I'm doing a service for the Filipino community from back in the day and for the present.
00:11:34.506 --> 00:11:37.989
I and his medal are being displayed in one of the bays right now.
00:11:37.989 --> 00:11:42.191
Thanks to Sherman over at the Hanford Library, he was able to help me track that down.
00:11:42.191 --> 00:12:26.197
So I want the Filipino community as a whole to understand and realize what the significance is of that, because the awards are still being given out to this day and I don't want for our Filipinos from World War II to be forgotten.
00:12:26.197 --> 00:12:31.626
I want them to flourish and thus have that history that we can cherish here on out.
00:12:33.452 --> 00:12:34.937
Let's move on to the Hmong exhibit.
00:12:34.937 --> 00:12:38.888
Now, nancy, can you share with us what visitors will see in your display?
00:12:39.990 --> 00:12:45.469
Yeah, of course, I actually worked with this with Paola Hyung and she also helped me out with it.
00:12:45.469 --> 00:12:53.005
So our exhibit is basically a lot of clothing and hats and the traditional garb that we wear.
00:12:53.005 --> 00:12:56.032
Hmong people are a little bit nomadic people.
00:12:56.032 --> 00:13:03.553
Our backgrounds are from all the way up to lower China and you can find them in also Laos and Thailand.
00:13:03.553 --> 00:13:10.448
So a lot of hill people and each one of them, each little tribe, each little area, has their different forms of dress.
00:13:10.448 --> 00:13:16.374
So, like when you get married to another person, another tribe, you take on their traditional garb.
00:13:16.374 --> 00:13:30.585
So the one that's actually displayed is actually my parents and my mom had a totally different kind of dress, but you can see some of the different dressings that we have there on that's depicted on there, some of the different dressings that we have there on, that's depicted on there.
00:13:30.585 --> 00:13:44.616
So it's kind of crazy because when we think of Hmong people, we think of them almost like a solitary, like group, like everyone's Hmong, but when you marry into another tribe, there is so I can't even tell you I have probably an entire closet filled of clothes that aren't traditionally my people.
00:13:44.616 --> 00:13:48.335
Yeah, so that's one spot that we have there.
00:13:48.335 --> 00:13:52.388
We also have again this is more Paola's thing.
00:13:52.388 --> 00:13:59.953
Her parents actually were farmers in the Merced area and so they didn't use like tractors and things like that.
00:13:59.953 --> 00:14:08.581
So there's like a hoe, there's a sickle there, there's a traditional basket that's woven from bamboo and things like that she also has.
00:14:08.581 --> 00:14:10.342
Her dad was an amazing person.
00:14:10.342 --> 00:14:27.152
Her dad actually made these wind instruments it's called a thing and he used to play it and sell them to people, and I think in Fresno there actually is like a small community that still does it, but there's barely.
00:14:27.152 --> 00:14:33.115
I could probably count on the number on my hands how many people can still play that instrument and play it.
00:14:33.115 --> 00:14:37.294
Well, and then on my part to it is my picture of my dad.
00:14:37.465 --> 00:14:42.277
So my dad actually fought in the Vietnam War for the American side.
00:14:42.277 --> 00:14:55.312
So before the Vietnam War was actually the Vietnam War, the CIA actually contacted a lot of the Hmong people that were in that area in order to fight with them against the Viet Cong.
00:14:55.312 --> 00:15:08.159
So the way they got the Hmong people to join them is literally they told them hey, you guys love being free out here, these farming Aguirrean people and the Viet Cong, they're going to come and take that from you guys.
00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:09.904
So if you guys fight with us.
00:15:09.904 --> 00:15:13.528
We'll make sure that you guys continue to be able to do what you guys want to do.
00:15:13.528 --> 00:15:29.120
And my dad at the time was actually just a teenager and my grandpa my dad had two younger brothers and he didn't want to leave them and so my dad actually volunteered for my grandpa and he actually went and did it.
00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:41.149
And my dad doesn't talk about it a lot, but I do know that he has a few grapnel wounds across his chest and he had like a bullet that was lodged in his nose and I don't remember why.
00:15:41.149 --> 00:15:46.389
We know that information, but those were some of his wounds that he got during that Vietnam War.
00:15:46.389 --> 00:15:52.047
Well, after the Vietnam War, of course he got during that Vietnam War.
00:15:52.067 --> 00:15:53.711
Well, after the Vietnam War, of course things changed in that area.
00:15:53.711 --> 00:16:26.480
So my parents actually moved over to one of those camps, one of those refugee camps, and because my dad had fought in the war, he was one of the first people that were able to get sponsored to come over to America and so my dad landed in Santa Ana, california, and we were with this amazing Christian woman and at the time my parents were still very traditional and shamanistic, which some Hmong people still are, but my mom, who was only in her 20s, she was considered like she, like barren, basically because she couldn't have kids.
00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:36.418
And then when she came over and she became Christian, my mom was able to get pregnant and after that my mom had eight kids I'm number seven.
00:16:36.418 --> 00:16:40.778
They really did like that Orange County area, but it just wasn't for them.
00:16:40.778 --> 00:16:50.317
Like Laos and Thailand, they were in literally, you know, planting things and raising animals, and they couldn't do that in that city.
00:16:51.118 --> 00:17:09.534
So my dad and his brothers, once they were able to actually all get sponsored over, they actually drove up to the Central Valley and they found some areas and they were like this is more like what we remember from our area, and so they decided to settle in Hanford and so we actually had.
00:17:09.534 --> 00:17:12.680
All my uncles had lived around in Hanford for a very long time.
00:17:12.680 --> 00:17:19.816
My parents still live in Hanford and we have an amazing Fresno community of Hmong people up there too.
00:17:19.816 --> 00:17:32.092
I mean, you guys probably hear about it all the time with the Hmong New Year that's happening every year and that is one of the best things that I love about this area and why I still continue to stay in this area.
00:17:32.092 --> 00:17:41.862
I actually don't live in Hanford anymore I live in Selma, but it's a very close part to not be too far from Hanford, where I was originally from, but also still be part of my community in Fresno.
00:17:43.286 --> 00:17:46.794
So in your opinion, then why is it so important to share cultures?
00:17:48.018 --> 00:17:59.169
I think it's really important because I feel like even within the history of, like Asian Americans, hmong people are just like we're very, very like at the end or like very like contemporary.
00:17:59.169 --> 00:18:01.094
But everyone's story is important.
00:18:01.094 --> 00:18:02.636
I mean not even just ours.
00:18:02.636 --> 00:18:09.698
I mean, if you go back 200 years or whatever, it's still something that I think we need to know the good, the bad, all those things.
00:18:09.698 --> 00:18:15.005
And we were talking about it the other day with one of the guests.
00:18:15.568 --> 00:18:23.733
She was wearing a Hmong jacket and she was talking about how she had bought this in the 80s and how amazing it was and how well done it was.
00:18:23.733 --> 00:18:42.996
And I was remarking to her that your jacket is amazing because even now the stuff that we are getting the bandao, the needlework is not even as good as it used to be, and I don't even think that we are going to have artisans that can reproduce that anymore after this generation.
00:18:42.996 --> 00:18:44.926
And I think those things are important.
00:18:44.926 --> 00:18:55.240
Everyone needs to know that where you come from, and sometimes it's not just about what you're wearing but like the skill that goes behind it I think those things are really important to know.
00:18:56.685 --> 00:19:02.377
So, Gail, as I was looking around the museum the other day, I noticed that there's an awesome display on the Asian martial arts.
00:19:03.625 --> 00:19:04.307
Yes, there is.
00:19:04.307 --> 00:19:06.996
We decided to do a martial arts exhibit.
00:19:06.996 --> 00:19:16.416
There's so many different versions of martial arts that we had to only pick a few, and one was the jiu-jitsu, because there are several schools in Kings County.
00:19:16.416 --> 00:19:21.296
We do not have a kendo school but there are kendo practitioners here in the county.
00:19:21.296 --> 00:19:22.106
So there's that.
00:19:22.106 --> 00:19:25.881
There's some Kali sticks, there's some Filipino martial arts items.
00:19:25.881 --> 00:19:30.933
We also have the origin of how martial art tools actually started from farming tools.
00:19:31.776 --> 00:19:45.523
And we do have an interesting photo on there of one of the rare photos of Bruce Lee with a group and there is a gentleman sitting next to him which actually is from Hanford that trained with Bruce Lee with a group and there is a gentleman sitting next to him which actually is from Hanford that trained with Bruce Lee in the Filipino martial arts.
00:19:45.544 --> 00:19:48.996
So the Cali sticks and the knuckles behind there do correlate with that exhibit.
00:19:48.996 --> 00:20:00.915
So another thing that's really interesting is the VFW Nisei Liberty Post that is put together, where we're only able to find nine photos of the original charter members in their hats.
00:20:00.915 --> 00:20:03.373
We also have one of the first photos.
00:20:03.373 --> 00:20:07.964
It may not be the original photo but there's a first post photo which shows all the members.
00:20:07.964 --> 00:20:14.978
We also have their first reunion in 1952, which has names of participants from all up and down the state.
00:20:14.978 --> 00:20:15.878
Their names are there.
00:20:15.878 --> 00:20:25.013
There's also the Nisei Memorial that they helped to sponsor up in Roeding Park, and they always had the band up there every Memorial Day.
00:20:25.013 --> 00:20:33.075
So it's about how the club started, all the things that they were involved in, and right now they just celebrated their 75th anniversary.
00:20:34.526 --> 00:20:39.756
Ariane, you were sharing with me earlier about all the Chinese American mom and pop grocery stores in the area.
00:20:39.756 --> 00:20:41.179
What did you discover?
00:20:42.586 --> 00:20:49.138
Yes, it was once I started counting up how many mom-and-pop Chinese American grocery stores there were.
00:20:49.138 --> 00:21:01.354
I think there were like 10 of them, and from the 1950s to the 90s that's kind of, when you think about the population of Hanford and Hanlamore, I mean how many could they sustain?
00:21:01.354 --> 00:21:03.851
But they weren't Asian grocery stores.
00:21:03.851 --> 00:21:10.833
They might have had a shelf or an aisle or a section, but they serviced the community, they were mom and pop.
00:21:10.833 --> 00:21:19.563
That started with grandpa and I could take one of them actually started in China, alley in the 1880s and, you know, lasted.
00:21:19.563 --> 00:21:21.965
It's still around, only, of course, different owners.
00:21:21.965 --> 00:21:26.237
And that was just a nice phenomenon to me to find and discover and share.
00:21:28.346 --> 00:21:34.307
The Kings County's Asian Experiences exhibition is open every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 1 to 5 pm.
00:21:34.307 --> 00:21:39.637
You can also arrange for private tours through our website at carnegiemuseumofkingscountyorg.
00:21:39.637 --> 00:21:50.015
As Ariane mentioned, we'll be holding a special tribute to the China Alley Moon Festival in the museum parking lot on Saturday, September 28th, from noon until 5.
00:21:50.015 --> 00:21:51.478
Admission is free.
00:21:51.478 --> 00:21:57.096
The Lion Dancers from Cal Poly will be performing, as well as the Fresno Gumiho Taiko.
00:21:57.096 --> 00:22:09.512
There'll be food booths and other popular Moon Festival vendors, such as Kenneth Rank with his bonsai trees, Raymond Thomas will be demonstrating origami and the Hanford High Salad Bowl Club will have special artwork tattoos for the kids.
00:22:09.512 --> 00:22:16.807
There will also be a booth by the China Alley Preservation Society for you to contribute to the restoration efforts that Ariane mentioned.
00:22:16.807 --> 00:22:18.892
It's going to be a great day, for sure.
00:22:18.892 --> 00:22:28.910
I'd like to thank all of you for your tireless efforts in presenting this exhibition for the community and for coming on the show after a long week to share the good news of the opening.
00:22:28.910 --> 00:22:30.012
Well, thank you.
00:22:30.053 --> 00:22:30.272
Rob.
00:22:31.355 --> 00:22:32.237
Thanks so much, Rob.
00:22:32.237 --> 00:22:34.833
Thank you, Rob, for having me on your podcast.
00:22:35.535 --> 00:22:36.901
Thank you so much for having us.
00:22:36.901 --> 00:22:44.881
I really hope everyone does come out not just to see just the Long Air area but, like everyone else's, and their impact on Kings County.
00:22:45.623 --> 00:22:47.185
Rob, thank you for taking care of this.
00:22:47.185 --> 00:22:58.160
I just hope everyone learns to budget time, because this exhibit is so much larger than the other one, it will be at least two hours and it may be multiple visits.
00:22:59.163 --> 00:22:59.805
Thanks, Rob.
00:22:59.805 --> 00:23:02.934
We're looking forward to seeing everyone at the Tribute to the Moon Festival.
00:23:08.066 --> 00:23:11.636
And now it's time for Hanford Insider Sports with Eric Bentley.
00:23:17.065 --> 00:23:18.026
Week four saw a trio of lopsided scores.
00:23:18.026 --> 00:23:20.027
Week 4 saw a trio of lopsided scores.
00:23:20.027 --> 00:23:26.911
We'll start with the Bullpups, who stayed perfect on the season with a 62-17 romp of El Diamante.
00:23:26.911 --> 00:23:35.856
After the Miners took a 3-0 lead, the Bullpups responded with 42 unanswered first-half points to put the game away before halftime.
00:23:35.856 --> 00:23:44.762
And this week, for the Bullpups it was the Albert Richardson show, as he rushed for two touchdowns, had a pick six and a punt return touchdown.
00:23:53.285 --> 00:23:57.654
Hanford High will try to keep their undefeated streak alive as they finally get a chance to play at Neighbor Bowl this season, hosting Redwood this week.
00:23:57.654 --> 00:24:01.644
Sierra Pacific was unable to come away with a victory last week, following Tukalinga 35-0.
00:24:01.644 --> 00:24:10.411
The Golden Bears will look to bounce back this week against Carruthers, and Hanford West is still searching for their first win of the season after being shut out by Kerman.
00:24:10.411 --> 00:24:14.186
The Huskies will take to the road this week to face Menache.
00:24:14.186 --> 00:24:24.952
